The album, produced by Wouter Van Belle and Marc Bonne, was released by Warner Music, reached #1 on the Ultratop Chart in Flanders, and won the band a platinum record.

In 2005, Novastar signed with the EMI record label, which released Another Lonely Soul (supplemented with the debut-album single "Wrong") in all European countries.

In the last months of 2007, Zweegers took his old keyboard player Jeroen Swinnen along to Bangor, a small picturesque village near the coast of Brittany, France, to write songs.

After a sold-out club tour in the Fall of 2008, the band performed in February at the fully packed Lotto Arena in Antwerp and Amsterdam's Heineken Music Hall.

The album was produced and mixed by John Leckie (The Stone Roses, Radiohead, The Verve, Los Lobos, Muse, My Morning Jacket, Pink Floyd, Harrison).
